Arxan Technologies to Speak at The Amphion Forum on Key Mobile Security Strategies to Ensure App Integrity Across Multiple Devices and Platforms

(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) BETHESDA, MD -- (Marketwire) -- 12/04/12 --
WHAT: Vince Arneja, vice president of product management for Arxan Technologies, the industry leader of software security solutions that protect the global App Economy, will speak on "Apps Under Attack - Protect the Integrity of Your Apps with Code Hardening and Tamper Protection," at The Amphion Forum 2012. The Amphion Forum is an exclusive, interdisciplinary, and intense event which brings together thought leaders from academia, business, government and technology to discuss the threats and opportunities presented by the unprecedented proliferation of connected devices.

Arxan will also be exhibiting its Mobile App Protection Suite designed to protect code integrity and intellectual property (IP) from attacks. To schedule a meeting at the Arxan booth, please email info@arxan.com.

During the session, Arneja will outline actual use cases of app protection implementations that achieve strong app integrity across multiple platforms and millions of devices in leading industries such as financial services, gaming, digital media and software publishing. Whether on a smart phone, tablet, desktop or server, the application perimeter has become a much sought-after hacker target to steal valuable IP, insert malware, modify security and policy logic, and compromise business models via app attacks.

Arneja will detail how app owners can protect the integrity of apps from application hacking, by deploying active code hardening and tamper protection measures as part of a layered approach to application security and are complimentary to traditional app security best practices, such as code scanning or pen testing.

Attendees will gain insight on proven app protection deployments that defend app innovation on connected devices against financial loss, liability exposure, compromised user experience or reputation damage as a result of growing attacks against apps, especially on the mobile computing platform.

Arxan's software security solutions provide automated defend, detect and react capabilities by deploying various security techniques (called Guards) such as obfuscation, checksum or anti-debug directly into the software code of each app to protect binaries against discovery and compromise. The technology delivers resilient app integrity and defends against tampering and reverse-engineering of code and IP in a durable and proven manner which does not impact source code, application functioning or the development process.
